Unboxing the FIRST Apple Silicon, a brand new first generation iPad!

We’ve all been very glad to see the first Apple Silicon Macs... but they’re definitely not the first Apple Silicon *apple products*. So today we’re going to look at the product that is. The first generation iPad introduced by Steve Jobs in 2010

yep, this is the kind of quality review I'm looking for

It still feels like yesterday when everyone was expecting the "iSlate"

My grandma had this same iPad and bought it when it first came out. She passed away this summer and I was given it. Compared to my 8th gen, it’s incredible how much things changed over the years!

It was worth $300 and now its opened its worth $30 😩but hey great video!!

Man, the ultrawide lens you are using for your top down shots has some heavy distortion.

When I was 15 I was blown away by the iPad on release... but knew I couldn’t afford it.
My great Uncle surprised me one day, taking me to Best Buy to pick one up! I could not believe it, it felt like the future... yet all it really did was play YouTube videos at low resolution 😂 Didn’t matter to me though. I was in my glory. Thank you to Uncle Mikey, RIP.

There’s just something about the first gen iPads design, the way its edges make it look like a shrunken down unibody iMac, maybe even more so than the newer iPad 2s

I bought my parents this as a Christmas present back in 2010. They still have it, and it still works! I knew they wanted something portable, that had a good screen for showing off digital pictures. The iPad was by far the best item on the market for that purpose, and still performs that task today. I knew they would never get full potential out of it, but I also knew from experience that my other options were digital picture frames, and those had awful touch screens that were unresponsive, and even worse resolution. The iPad prepared them for the iPhone 6s and iPhone 7 they have today. I remember all the negativity about this product, but my parents were very glad to have it at that time.

OMG!! that knife is the best investment for the channel so far!

12:16 "I find very surprising not to be scammed". Really... The only types of scam you suffer from is when you buy a MacBook unibody from 2009 and receive a retina from 2013 and shit like that.

I don't usually like videos on youtube but your excitement is great. 😊

It took a freeway rollover to finally kill ours. Loved how solid it was!

I remember being in high school Algebra as a freshman when this was announced. My teacher, who was a tech enthusiast, was talking about how "cheap" it was. I think she spent half of the class talking about how amazing it was to have computers getting so small and "cheap". I remember vividly her saying it blows her mind that laptops are so small and how "back in her day" computers were several thousands and not less than $500 lol. Where has 10 years gone???

[Seb]

I still have one of those iPads, and it crashes when you open app store lol

All that sniffing of Apple Products must not be good for you Luke...

I bought one on a business trip in the USA the week they were launched and took it back to the UK where there were still not released. The first (and only) time I had the must have device first! Within an hour of powering it up in my hotel room I was hooked. It was used continuously for 5 years and still works. It was a remarkable device.

We played a lot of Angry Birds on that thing. Great nostalgia trip!
Also- these jib shots are magical.

I have a 1st Gen iPad 64GB (WiFi + 3G) running on its original firmware. (iPhoneOS 3.2) They are amazing and extraordinarily rare. It's great to see you have a fresh original one as well! Keep up the great work man!
